How MicroRNA contributes to Neuroscience?

Image
Nervous system, Neuroscience and MicroRNA Nervous system and Neuroscience The nervous system is a highly complex system that coordinates physical behavior and perception by sending signals around the body. The nervous system is closely related to the sensory organs to respond to changes in the external environment and cooperates with the endocrine system to endow the organism with the ability to adapt to the environment[1]. Defined at the cellular level, the nervous system consists primarily of neurons (nerve cells), in addition to glial cells that provide structural and metabolic support[2]. Defined at the system level, the nervous system consists of the central nervous system (CNS) and the peripheral nervous system (PNS). CNS consists primarily of the brain and spinal cord, the main function is to integrate information and send signals to the body to control coordination[3]. PNS consists of the nerves and ganglia outside the brain and spinal cord, the main function is to perceive and...
